Ok I'll replace all the hoses. After it cooled for a while, I put some water in, it took a good amount so I'm guessing I have a leak. BUT, When I emptied the coolant out of the overflow tank(the tube wasn't clogged) The coolant was BROWN:confused: .(maybe oil?) So, I started it back up and it idles low and rough. Do I have a cracked block??

The radiator was ou of the junkyard but it looked brand new!! The paint wasn't even chipped and itonly had like 4 bent finns. The thermostat was new. Fan works. AC wasn't on.:boohoo:

Ever since I bought this 89RX-T 4WD (ea82t) the temp. gauge stays in the middle during normal driving then when I get stuck in traffic it goes up to the red line but, nver over heats. So, I replaced the thermostat and radiator....it still does it:banghead: I figured since it didn't over heat it was the temp sensor. It's driven fine until ten minutes ago the temp gauge went all the way up and it over heated. My radiator cap isn't even HOT!!! I know there's penty of fluid in there cause the overflow bottle was at the full line. What do you think it could be? I'm guessing waterpump??? PLEASE HELP???
